Archive: Christmas Dinner (2021)

I made two types of meat on Christmas Day 2020. The dish includes lamb and chicken. The table and meal took a long time to prepare. This meal is for Christmas to celebrate, and I had more freedom in the kitchen. It turned out well. There was plenty left the following day.

The meat is left to marinate for one hour. You could make the Christmas dinner meet your dietary requirements. However, the recipe only substitutes for dairy when cooking for parties. The meat is seasoned slightly differently from the recipe below. Season the meat to your taste. Also, try using two sticks of celery for the chicken. I may write a full recipe in the future. However, here are some of the ingredients I used.
